Over the past decades, the hippocampal formation has undergoneextensive study leading researchers to identify a vast array ofcells with functional properties (place cells, splitter cells,etc). In the present work, we aim at investigating whether theactivity of those cells derive from the anatomy of the hippocampalformation and the properties of neuron or derive instead from theactual behavior of the animal. To do so, we simulated an agentnavigating inside an 8-shaped track, making alternating choices(T-maze alternating task). We designed a random network, based onthe reservoir computing paradi
